I noticed some new Spesh bikes have plastic blanks/covers for the bottle bolt holes, rather than metal bolts. Does anyone sell them?

Ikea do White plastic blanking caps which fit perfectly into bottle boss holes, send me a mail and I'll chuck you some in the post if you want ๐Ÿ™‚

I was about to add... if anyone has a DIY bodge then that would also be perfect. I've tried BIC pen tops but they're too fat.

No probs. For anyone else that is after some they actually come from B&Q, they are sold in the kitchen isle in bags of about 250 so you should get a few frames worth.

Gamo, maybe.

I just taped over the holes on my commuter. Having bolts in holes interfered with the lock holder on there.
